I'm trying to make Firefox default browser for Thunderbird web links but Opera is opening instead.

I've checked file assocation and Firefox is default for htm, html, xhtml and shtml.Also have Firefox set as default browser and have default set in Thunderbird for network.protocol-handler.app for the above file extensions as far as I can see.

You may want to look at Edit>Preferences>Attachments in Thunderbird and make sure nothing is there overriding your default browser choice. See this Ubuntu related thread discussing trying to get Chrome working, with the last post indicating that if you delete any http related content choices under Attachments, it should use the default browser.

A couple months ago I posted some instructions here for Dieselrider to get Thunderbird to open Firefox when clicking links in emails, I think they should still work. Ignore the part about installing FF9.0 if you already have a newer version installed (like FF10 or FF11).
